I'm just a little taken with this top... (no, NOT planning to buy)

Denise, fun indeed! I like the paler floral a lot; the first one's *groovy* but I don't think I have the vertical real estate to show off that large-scale a pattern, boo-hoo! :-p

Loving the last albino/psychedelic peacock with the paisleys, and indeed one size should fit at least 3 given the elasticated waist. Actually, I love that this site gives the actual measurements of the garments (still kind of rare here for online shopping).

I don't like the colors, it's sad and dark..

I could totally see you in that Manidipa! I LOVE the second pair or harem pants that CL linked to, as well.

I like the idea of it, but not the execution. Like Rute I don't like the colors. The second pair of harem pants is great, though!

Wow, I love this print! It does have kind of a dark humor about it, but that's what I love!

I love that top! I agree with those saying it's dark, but to me that's a feature, not a bug. I'm totally with Rae that there's a certain wittiness to it. I don't find it depressing at all. I love the graphic, the colors, and the cut. Goes to show how different perceptions of the same object can be!

Edited to add: I'd like to see it paired with something that highlights the humor and tones down the darkness a bit for those who might perceive it that way, but I don't know what. Citron or robin's egg blue or neon pink skinnies, maybe?

Chrizzle: My red skinnies? :-p

I have to say the facelessness of the faces alternately scares me a bit (horror movie vibe?) and launches me into euphoria with all the pop references that start running through my head

I have to admit -- I like it and, if it were me, I probably would get it. The dark humour and the urban vibe speak to me. I can picture it with skinny jeans (a dark wash would work, I think), and sandals (I'd wear these: http://www.clarksusa.com/eng/p.....olly/60812).

I'm totally projecting here, BTW. The top's selling point for me, aside from the eccentric print, is the length. I've recently been struggling with finding tops long enough to wear with skinny jeans without making me feel like an exposed ice cream cone...and this looks like it would work rather well.
